1 Cooking 101 Quick and Easy Menus, Recipes and Tips for Singles and Couples (Week 7) FN1618 Cooking in Small Spaces Using a Microwave Oven North Dakota State University, Fargo, North Dakota August 2012
2 When deciding what to make for dinner, people usually consider taste, cost and convenience. Even if you have little time for meal preparation or live in a location with minimal cooking space, you still should consider nutrition. Proper nutrition provides the nutrients and energy we need to stay healthy, and with just a few tips and suggestions, you can prepare and eat nutritious and satisfying foods in most living situations. Pop Quiz: What do you know already? (The answers are on Page 4.) 1 True 2 When 3 Which or False: You can heat foods in takeout containers, old whipped topping bowls or margarine tubs in a microwave oven. using this cooking method, you should stir the food halfway through and rotate the cooking dish to eliminate uneven cooking temperatures or cold spots: a) Baking b) Grilling c) Microwaving d) Heating on the stovetop one of these dishes is not microwave safe? a) Glass bowl b) Plastic foam cup c) Ceramic bowl d) Bowl labeled microwave safe 2 Cooking 101: Week 7
3 n Take advantage of leftovers by eating them the next day. Consider taking them to work or school in a small cooler. Tips for Saving Space n Compare unit prices of different sizes of foods. If the smaller container does not cost considerably more, buying the smaller size may be a good way to save cupboard space. n Get rid of unnecessary cookware. Some essentials to keep might include a frying pan, sauce pan, slow cooker, measuring cups, spatula and other equipment you use often. n Plan weekly menus considering what you have on hand and what is on sale at the grocery store. Buy only the groceries you need for the week. n When planning your menus, consider which foods can be cooked in a limited space with a slow cooker, microwave or single pan. n Be creative to maximize the space you have. Can you store your toaster on top of your microwave? Can you store small dishes in your slow cooker when it is not in use? Will your frying pan and sauce pans all nest in one stack? n If you do not have a lot of refrigerator space, buy canned vegetables and fruits instead of fresh. Canned versions still provide great nutrition, and you can store them at room temperature. n Wash dishes after each meal. Leaving out dirty dishes will make your kitchen feel more cramped and can create odors that impact your entire living space. If you do not have access to a space to wash dishes with warm, soapy water, consider using disposable paper products. Cooking 101: Week 7 3
4 Which Containers Are Microwave Safe? Safe for microwave use: n Glass, ceramic cookware and those labeled safe for microwave use n Microwave-safe plastic wraps, wax paper, cooking bags, parchment paper and white microwave-safe paper towels Not safe for microwave use: n Margarine tubs, whipped topping bowls, cheese containers and other disposable plastic containers because they melt from increased temperatures, which causes harmful chemicals to get into your food n Carry-out containers from restaurants or plastic foam (unless they specifically state microwave safe) n Foam-insulated trays and plastic wraps on fresh meats from grocery stores Note: Discard containers that hold prepared microwavable meals after you use them because they are meant for one-time use. Cook It Safe! When Microwaving n Know what wattage your microwave is and compare that to the wattage stated in the packaged food s cooking directions. The lower the wattage, the slower the microwave cooks your food, so adjust cooking times accordingly. n Read and follow package cooking directions. n Be sure to arrange food items evenly in microwave-safe dishes and add water if needed. You can cover any dish with a lid or plastic wrap before cooking to help keep in moisture. n Defrost and cook large cuts of meat and other frozen foods on medium power (50 percent) rather than high power (100 percent); this allows heat to reach the center without overcooking outer areas. When defrosting food, use 30 percent power or the defrost setting on the microwave. n Stir and rotate your food half way through cooking to prevent cold spots or areas where harmful bacteria can survive. n Prevent burns by removing your food from the microwave carefully. Use potholders and uncover foods away from your face so steam can escape. n Observe recommended standing time. The stand time means the food continues to cook to a higher temperature after it s removed from the microwave. n Use a food thermometer to be sure your food is cooked to the proper temperature. Answers: 1. False, 2. c, 3. b 4 Cooking 101: Week 7 *For more information on safe cooking tips for a microwave, check out
